What is
Matcha?

Matcha is one of the highest quality teas available in Japan. Tealeaves for Matcha grow slowly in shaded tea plantations and are hand picked by skillful Japanese farmers in May of each year. Dried and ground by granite stone mills into a fine powder, it retain all the nutrients and benefits of young green leaves. For over 800 years Matcha has been associated with Zen.

Simple, Yet
Special

Matcha drinkers consume the whole green tea leaf and all of its goodness, unlike brewed tea.

Energy

The caffeine content in Matcha is almost twice as high compared to brewed green tea but two times lower compared to a shot of espresso. Unlike coffee, Matcha does not give jitters or headaches. Instead, it has a calming, relaxing effect, thanks to various amino acids and L-Theanine that slow down the release of tea-caffeine.

Detox

Because tealeaves of Matcha grow in the shade, the delicate powder is much richer in chlorophyll compared to other varieties of green teas. This green pigment is a great natural detoxing agent. Together with other components like polyphenols and catechins, drinking Matcha improves digestion and assists with healthy weight loss.

Antioxidants

Matcha contains higher level of antioxidants per gram than goji berries, dark chocolate, or spinach. The mix of polyphenols and flavonoids, the super healthy compounds found in Matcha, neutralizes the harmful effect of oxygen free radicals and protect cells from early aging. In fact, the well-known longevity of the people of Okinawa is partially credited to daily consumption of Matcha green tea.
